First, Sung River itself is famous for its generosity and saving money. Moreover, Song Jiang is rich and likes to help others with money. He became famous before saving Classical.

Second, classicism is famous all over the world because it outweighs the birth class. After the fire with Wang Lun, Classical became the castellan of Liangshan, and Song Jiang saved him. As soon as the man who saved the boss went up the mountain, he became the second child. As a result, Classical died and Song Jiang succeeded to the throne.

Third, Song Jiang is good at creating groups. Before going to Liangshan, he had Huarong Qin Ming and his gang from Qingfeng Mountain and Dai Zong from jy, Li Kui, Jiangzhou, as his wings. After going up the mountain, his henchmen continued, while Classical had only a few people and others had no clique.

Fourth, Song Jiang raised Liangshan's position and turned a bandit den into a base for doing justice for heaven. Because this slogan was shouted by Song Jiang, people who defected to Liangshan, including those who surrendered to the imperial court, naturally turned to Song Jiang and let Song Jiang lead them to "do justice for heaven."

Fifth, Song Jiang has tactics, and always puts himself in the position of commander-in-chief rather than the stockade leader. In this way, the final total credit for every victory fought by Liangshan heroes is his, and he has gained actual power and reputation, while the real stockade leader, Classical, has no chance to make contributions.

Sixth, Song Jiang does have wisdom. Most Liangshan heroes are well-developed and simple-minded. Generally speaking, the brave can only win under the guidance of the wise. Although Song Jiang is not as good as Wu Yong, he can still win the battle by himself. Classical would be foolish to leave Wu Yong.
